Basic Sponge Cake Recipe
Fits well in an 8" square tin but any shape will be fine.
This same
mixture can be used to make small fairy cakes. You could fill 12 paper
cases (bake in the oven in a patty or muffin tin for about 15 minutes)
and then use the rest for the main cake - puddings and treats!
Ingredients
300g/12oz/2 cups of self raising flour
1 teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda
100g/4oz/half a cup of sugar
1 cup/8 fl.oz/200ml of sunflower oil
1 cup of Soya milk
(or possibly a little more to get a good mixture)
2 teaspoons of natural vanilla extract (optional)
Method
Oil your cake tin and preheat oven to 180C/360F.
Mix together your dry
ingredients of flour, sugar and bicarbonate. Make a well in the middle
and pour in the oil. Soya milk and vanilla - mix well. Pour into cake
tin.
Bake for about half an hour or until cooked in middle.
Insert a
knife or skewer into the centre of cake and if cooked it will come out
clean.
Variations
Top with chocolate chips prior to baking.
Add dried fruit or chopped nuts (50-100g) to the mixture.
Once cool ice with melted chocolate or water icing (50g. of icing sugar
mixed with 1 or 2 teaspoons of hot water)
Add a mashed banana or two while mixing for banana cake.
Add the juice and zest of a lemon - you can also make lemon icing in the
same way as water icing using lemon juice instead of water.
